Bell Work • How do plants get the energy they need? • How do animals get the energy they need? • After you answer these get out your PDSA folder and make sure it is up to date
Bell Work • How do plants get the energy they need? Photosynthesis. Plants require sun, carbon dioxide, and water to make food • How do animals get the energy they need? Animals eat plants and/or animals for energy
Objective • Students will be able to demonstrate their ecological knowledge as evidenced by completion of review activity
Community • All the interacting organisms in a specified area
Individual • One single organism
Abiotic • nonliving components of the ecosystem
Primary/First Level Consumers • Consumers that eat producers
Food Web • A diagram that shows all the feeding relationships
All the individuals of one kind (one species) in a specified area
Population • All the individuals of one kind (one species) in a specified area
Biotic Factors • Living organisms and products of organisms
Functional Role in a feeding relationship through which energy flows
Trophic Levels • Functional Role in a feeding relationship through which energy flows
Organism • Any living thing
Niche • A role a living thing plays in its habitat. A plant is a food producer, whereas an insect both consumes food as well as provides food for other consumers
Consume dead plants and animals, reducing them into simpler forms of matter
Secondary/Second-Level Consumers • Consumers that eat primary or first-level consumers
Prey • An animal that other animals hunt and eat. A mouse is prey that is eaten by other animals, such as owls and snakes
A system of interacting organisms and nonliving factors in a specified area
Ecosystem • A system of interacting organisms and nonliving factors in a specified area
Tertiary/Third-Level Consumers • Consumers that eat secondary or second-level consumers
An organism that is able to produce its own food through photosythesis
Producer • An organism that is able to produce its own food through photosythesis
Food Chain • The path that food takes from one to another organism
Autotroph • Organisms that make their own food
Consumer • An organism that eats other organisms
The process by which green plants and other producers use simple compounds and energy from light to make sugar, an energy rich compound
Photosynthesis • The process by which green plants and other producers use simple compounds and energy from light to make sugar, an energy rich compound
Predator • An animal that other animals hunt and eat. An owl is a predator that feeds on small animals such as mice
Biomass • the total organic matter in an ecosystem
